Please do not perceive me.

  • Going to start wearing one of these full time so all video evidence becomes inadmissible

  • Boy I hope you really, really enjoy debilitating security holes if you're using GPT to write your backend JS

  • Potato potato, they're both land boats built like a three legged rhinoceros with the worst front sight lines I've ever seen.

  • Yes, and that's also a significant problem and should be illegal.

  • Nah, you're correct.

    The translation is left as an exercise for the reader :)

  • The name was originally chosen for nerd cred (for anyone who recognizes it - Atra esterní ono thelduin. Mor'ranr lifa unin hjarta onr. Un atra du evarínya ono varda.) but I later realized that it's also great because it's an actual word from an actual story and 99% of search engine results for my name are going to bring up that story and its wiki. It's an extra layer of pseudo-anonymity that I enjoy.

    The avatar was just cause it's funny, I use this one all over the place.

  • Narrator: He was.

  • Meanwhile, me, rolling in with Pestilent Mist and Soul Greatsword:

  • Username checks out

  • I remember a couple forums had a "thank" feature or something similar that would show, with your username, your approval for a post without having to make an additional post about it. No downvotes though, you had to speak up to be a hater. I think that was a fine middle ground.

  • Quantum physics tells us that nothing is actually chock full of little somethings

  • Man I really want to get into Mechwarrior but I'm just so ridiculously bad at the game and I have no idea how to get better.

    I've tried to begin the MW5 campaign three times now and I've been priced out of existing every time, I take way too much damage and my repair bills vastly outstrip my income. Combine with having to spend hundreds of thousands of credits in travel fees to get anywhere and I'm very quickly even more broke than I started.

    Just for kicks the other day I set up an Instant Action for testing purposes and I brought two Atlases, a Highlander and an Archer to some random backwater mid-difficulty mission and still barely limped out of there alive, with the Highlander and one of the Atlases downed. That's just shameful.

  • I've dark souls dodge rolled an entire series of physical and mental maladies from both sides of my family and I'm afraid they're all going to hit me like a sack of bricks when I turn 40

  • I found that I liked the earlier Bioshocks more than Infinite, personally. It was good though. Elizabeth is the GOAT gold standard for persistent non-player companions, she never once felt like the escort quest that she technically is.

    If you're a fan of the series, check out System Shock too. It's cool to see where the roots come from and they're great games on their own. Shock 1 is a little (okay, a lot) crusty by modern standards but the remake kicks ass. Shock 2 I think still stands on its own merits once you get used to it and has a pretty robust modding scene to make your own remake if you're so inclined.

  • What I don't get, personally, is how this one scratched-in groove wave can contain a bassline, a melody and a singing voice and they all can be differentiated coming out of the speaker.

    How speakers work in general is just black magic to me, actually.

  • I don't think he ever had much of a chance to be anything else, given who he was raised by.

  • Frank himself (or at least his authors) agree.

    My cousin put a hat on their cat for new years. He doesn't seem pleased

    I probably got this rule from 196
